It took us a whole year to get back to where we wer, the Detroit Red Wings facing off againts the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 2009 Stnaley Cup. This should be one of the better NHL Finals in quite some time, as both teams are looking like they are ready to rumble. The Penguisn have come a long way since they lost in last year’s Final, and Pittsburgh fans Stanley Cup tickets are hoping Sydney Crosby and Evgeni Malkincan pull out a win. This is a much different team than the one that lost last year, so look for what should be a very good series. Nothing is better than NHL playoff hockey, but when you are talking about the Stanley Cup, well that is a different story all together. I can’t wait to see what happens when these teams face off, so make sure that you get in there and see all the action with some tickets to see the Stanley Cup.
The 2009 NH playoffs have culminated in the Stanely Cup, which will see the Red Wings take on the Penguins once again
Can a Red Wings team with quite a few injuries keep up with a Penguisn team whose leadign scorers have been on fire? Its not going to be easy for Detroit, as some of their best will be at the very least hampered by injuries. But the Red Wing were able to top the Pens last year, and that was without Marian Hossa. Now, Hossa is on the team he believes gives him the best chance to win a Stanley Cup title, and its going to be a tough series all around. Make sure that you get in on the entertainment and buy your Stanley Cup tickets soon.
Well the first round of the playoffs were about as exciting as anyone with NHL playoff tickets could have asked for, with some epic battles and some huge upsets. NHL hockey is unique compared to the others sports because once the playoffs start it is completely unpredictable. Sure you can say the same thing about the others sports, but in hockey its a whole different story. When was the last time you saw an 8 seed knock off a #1 seed in basketball? The Ducks stunner was a great series of hockey that must have been a special scene for anyone with hockey tickets for the playoffs.
Now we enter the second round of the playoffs, when thing should start getting really crazy as the 8 best teams get whittled down to 4. In the second round of the NHL playoffs, the Bruins will square off against the Hurricanes, which will be a sort of rivalry of the old Bruins Whalers rivalry of old. That series should be intense and you can be sure that a lot of fans are going to be looking for Bruins playoff tickets for that one. And of course fans will be looking for Hurricanes tickets as well.
The other Eastern Conference matchup features the Washington Capitals vs the Pittsburgh Penguins in a matchup of Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin. These are two of the best in the game so it should be one very exiting series of hockey. You’ve got the Penguins doing their best to get back to the Stanley Cup, while the Caps will be trying to do the same. The intensity should be through the roof so make sure you get your Capitals Penguins tickets as soon as you can.
In the Western Conference you have some very powerful teams that will be looking to make a name for themselves. The Ducks of course will be riding high after and incredible upset over the Sharks. Even being the #8 seed they will be tough to beat, and we will see if the Detroit Red Wings will be playing up to snuff. Fans are going to be looking for Red Wings tickets very hard this series, and you can be in Anaheim they will be looking for Ducks playoff tickets as well.
The last series of the second round of the NHL playoffs Will be the Vancouver Canucks against the Chicago Blackhawks. These guys are really something else, and you know that this series is going to be great for whoever has NHL Playoff tickets for it. Make sure you see all the excitement and get your Canucks playoff tickets as well as some Blackhawks playoff tickets as soon as you can.

This year we have some great teams looking to win it all, and you can expect plenty of excitement through the 2009 NHL playoffs. There are all kinds of story lines going on, and there are a number of really great teams out there. The San Jose Sharks have been the surprise of the NHL season, earning the Presidents Cup for the best regular season record. They are as elite a scoring team as they come, so if you are a fan you definitely want to get out there and see them play with some Bruins playoff tickets. In the Eastern Conference, the Boston Bruins have stunned just about everyone with the second-best record in the league and best in the conference. The Bruins have a talented squad that likes to play a rough style of hockey, so they are going to be tough for anyone to beat. You can’t beat NHL playoff tickets for intense hockey action can you? Then the defending Stanley cup Red Wings are looking sharp, and you can be sure nobody is going to be crazy about seeing them in the NHL playoffs. And the team they Red Wing beat in the Stanley Cup, the Pittsburgh Penguins, are also looking very sharp and should be in great shape once they take the ice. All in all its going to be a fantastic NHL post-season, so make sure you’ve got your playoff tickets ready to go because you don’t want to miss any of the action.
2009 NHL playoff previews:
Eastern Conference
Boston Bruins vs Montreal Canadiens
In terms of historical significance, this could be the most important game of the first round of the playoffs. To say there is no love lost between the Bruins and the Canadiens would be like saying summer is warmer than winter. These teams have played in some of the most memorable NHL games ever, and this year should be more of the same. Boston came out in first place in the NHL’s Western Conference, amassing 116 points in their 82 games. This is a historic rivalry with he Habs that is going to make Bruins Canadiens tickets some of the hottest of the year. The Bruins meet the Habs in the post-season for the fourth time in the past seven years. Recent history point to the Canadiens, as they won the series in 2002, 2004 and 2008 while historically, the Canadiens have won 24 of 31 playoff series against the Bruins all-time. But while history may point to the Habs, the Bruins have this season going for them. They have been a powerful and high-scoring team all season, and they won five of six games played against the Canadiens this season. They are the second-best scoring team in NHL, and the players on the Bruins are bigger and more physical. The Canadiens will definitely have their hands full going up against this team. Mark Recchi has been playing very well, and we all know what Zdeno Chara can do. If you’ve forgotten, here’s a reminder (warning, clip has some gore):
The Canadiens were able to seek into the playoffs with 93 points. They do have skilled players, but its going to be tough for them to hang with Boston’s powerful offensive line. Its going to be a great series, so make sure you’ve got your Bruins Canadiens playoff tickets ready to go.
Washington Capitals vs. New York Rangers
The Capitals vs Rangers is going to be a fun NHL playoff series to watch, as hockey fans will get to see another chapter in the offense vs defense book. While the Capitals have been one of the NHL’s best-scoring teams all year, the New York Rangers have been among the best defensive teams out there. Washington (108 points) likes to score.
A lot.
Led by Alex Ovechkin, the Washington Capitals are going to be putting an awful lot of pressure on the New York Rangers, but this Rangers team has shown it can hang with anyone, defensively anyway. Washington is third in goals scored per game, but they are also one of the easier teams to score on. The Caps won the season series over the Rangers, winning three of the four games they played. You know that Alex Ovechkin can’t wait to play in the post-season, and that will definitely increase demand for Capitals Rangers playoff tickets. Goalie Jose Theodore has performed well in the playoffs in the past, with Montreal in the 2002 playoffs and again in 2004 with Colorado, so the Caps are hoping he can stop the Rangers from scoring. This young Washington team doesn’t have much playoff experience, but then again neither do the Rangers. The NY Rangers (95 points) have a solid defense that is led by Henrik Lundqvist. They are a tough team to score goals against, but the problem is that they can’t score either- the Rangers rank 28 in offense in the NHL. They have done a good job of slowing down Ovechkin this season, and the Rangers have been terrific since Sean Avery, Nik Antropov and Derek Morris come over right before the trading deadline. The New York Rangers are an impressive 10-6-1 since then, and Rangers tickets have been going fast ever since. Avery has been great in the post-season before, so look for that to happen once again. forward Ryan Callahan was on fire entering the playoffs, so look for that to continue. All in all this is going to be a fun series to have NHL playoffs tickets for, so make sure that you don’t miss out on the fun.
Lets just hope that these games are half as exciting as the NHL’s longest ever shootout:
New Jersey Devils vs Carolina Hurricanes
Here is another NHL playoff series that hockey fans can’t wait to see. New Jersey (106 points), has tons of talented veterans who have gotten it done in the past, including Martin Brodeur and returned veterans Brian Rolston, Bobby Holik and Brendan Shanahan. But the ‘Canes (97 points) have been playing very good hockey lately, and are aiming for a second franchise Stanley Cup. Since Erik Cole came over at the trade deadline, Carolina has gone an impressive 12-3-2. They also won 12 straight home games before Buffalo beat them in the penultimate game of the season. The Carolina Hurricanes have been one of the highest scoring teams in the NHL since February, outscoring opponents by nearly double (88-45) and are also a very capable power-play threat. Like all NHL playoffs games this year, this is a series to watch. Make sure you’ve got your Devils Hurricanes tickets to these games because you do not want to miss the action.
If you are thinking about getting Devils Hurricanes playoff tickets, here a bit of an appetizer:
Pittsburgh Penguins vs. Philadelphia Flyers
One of the two inter-state round one playoff match ups (Ducks Sharks being the other), the Pittsburgh Penguins vs. the Philadelphia Flyers is going to be as intense a series as you will see this NHL playoff season. Both teams are talented, and you know that fans who buy Penguins Flyers playoff tickets are going to be screaming their heads off. The Penguins, (99 points), beat the Flyers in last year’s Eastern Conference Finals on route to the Stanley Cup, so you can bet the Flyers and their fans will be looking for some payback. Rookie coach Dan Bylsma has been great since he took over the team, with the Pens posting an eye-popping 18-3-4 record since he took over. You know that Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin will be very dangerous. Crosby was third in the league in scoring this year, but also has 10 game-winning goals (tied for second). Philadelphia (99 points) looks like it has shaken the injury bug and is looking healthy going into the post-season, which will be good news for Flyers fans out there who watched a hobbled team loose to Pittsburgh in the Eastern Conference Finals last year. Flyers’ Captain Mike Richards will need to stop Crosby if they Flyers are going to have a chance to win, but you know he is up to the challenge. Its going to be a heck-of a series, so make sure you’ve got your Penguins Flyers tickets ready to go.
This shoud give you some idea of what this Penguins Flyers series is going to look like:
Western Conference NHL Playoff match-ups
And in the Western Conference, there are definitely some hot NHL playoff tickets to choose from. There are some fantastic match-ups going on here, including the first California-only playoff series in 40 years. And with the defending champs in the mix, plus a revived Chicago Blackhawks franchise, this is going to be a great season for NHL post-season hockey. Make sure you’ve got your NHL playoff tickets ready to go because you do not want to miss a second.
San Jose (117 points) has been the league’s best team, and enjoys the leagues best record. But they will coming up against a Anaheim Ducks team that has been on fire lately and are the eight seed nobody wants to play. Two California teams haven’t met in the playoffs in 40 years, and with teams this good, you know that Sharks Ducks tickets are going to be some of the hottest of the year. The Sharks have been great the past few years, and this year the team has added some veterans that know how to win. They have been awesome at home, going 32-5-4, and and have been even awesomer(?) on the road, posting a 7-0-2 record on the road in last nine road games. But as good as the Sharks have been all season, in the past month the Ducks (91 points) have been better. The Anaheim Ducks have been nothing short of amazing in the last month of the season, going an incredible 10-2-1. They also beat the Sharks in San Jose 5-2. And the Ducks know what they are doing in the playoffs, lets not forget they won the Stanley Cup in 2007. This should be a very good matchup that will provide plenty to fun for whoever has Sharks Ducks tickets for the 2009 NHL playoffs.
Here is one guy definitely hoping for a Sharks win:
Detroit Red Wings vs. Columbus Blue Jackets
While most NHL fans wouldn’t be thrilled about facing a dominating Red Wings team that is defending its Stanley Cup title, Columbus Blue Jackets fans are ecstatic the Blue Jackets are in the franchises first NHL playoffs and are hoping the team can keep a great season going. Its wont be easy for the Blue Jackets, as the Red Wings have been very good this year. But with Columbus’ youth an x-factor, you never know what you’ll see with Blue Jackets Red Wings tickets. Detroit (112 points) has concerns at goalkeeper, so look for the Jackets to attack the net. With 92 points, Columbus has been a good team this year that will be among the biggest upsets in years if they re able to beat the Red Wings.
Here is a classic game between the Red Wings and the Blue Jackets:
Vancouver Canucks vs. St Louis Blues
Vancouver (100 points), has been incredible the past 2-plus months, and since February 1 they are 23-7-2. Goalie Roberto Luongo has been nothing short of spectacular all year and had nine shutouts this year, a franchise record. But the Blues have also been playing well recently, going 21-7-6 since Feb 1. This is a series that nobody wants to call because these team match up very well together. You can bet its going to be a fight to the finish, so make sure you’ve got your Canucks Blues tickets before it is too late.
They will need to find a way to deal with madman Gino Odjick though:
Chicago Blackhawks vs. Calgary Flames
This young Chicago Blackhawks have reinvigorated one of the country’s most devout hockey towns and are getting a lot of fans looking for Blackhawks playoff tickets. Chicago (104 points), has a young team that has been playing well lately after faltering a bit in mid-season. Goalie Nikolai Khabibulin has been solid the past month, and the Hawks are 6-0-1 in April and ended the season going 9-2-1 since March 22. They are definitely playing well so they are going to be a challenge for the Flames. Chicago also beat Detroit twice to end the season. You know that hockey fans in Chicago have been waiting for years for a return to the playoffs, so you know the United Center is going to be jumping. They are talented team, but inexperienced in the playoffs. They will be a tough opponent for the Calgary Flames (98 points). The Flames are a solid team without a huge superstar. But they play good fundamental hockey that is going to challenge a young Blackhawks team. Make sure you’ve got Blackhawks Flames tickets because this should be a very fun season. The Flames are celebrating their 20 anniversary of last Stanley Cup win, so it could be a great year to have Flames playoff tickets.
